Welcome to My Blog: A Space for Thoughtful Conversations & Insights 📌

Published by Ryan Gollan / 29 Jan 2025 (Pinned)

I’ve always believed that some of the most fascinating conversations happen over dinners with friends, chance meetings while travelling, and deep discussions with people from all walks of life.

Through my work, social circles, and frequent travels - both for leisure and business, I’ve had the privilege of meeting a diverse group of people: entrepreneurs, next-gen heirs, investors, family office advisors, creatives, and thought leaders. And if there’s one thing I’ve learned, it’s that people are always thinking about interesting things, questioning trends, and observing the world in their own unique ways.

This blog is my way of capturing those conversations, insights, and observations. Sometimes, they come from patterns I’ve noticed, trends emerging among UHNW families, or simply a discussion that made me think deeper about an issue. Other times, it’s just something I’ve always been curious about and decided to explore further.

Of course, I could write about many different topics, but as my professional work revolves around family office advisory and philanthropy, which is generally relevant to a specific audience. This blog naturally leans towards subjects that resonate with that market. My focus has always been on ideas, trends, values, and human experiences. I remain deeply aware, respectful, and grateful for all perspectives in this world, and I write with the intention of staying humble, authentic, and grounded.

But let’s be clear, these are just my own thoughts and opinions. I don’t claim to have all the answers, and I welcome different perspectives. If you have a topic you’d like me to explore, or a different take on something I’ve written, I’d love to hear from you. The best conversations are never one-sided, and I hope this blog becomes a place where ideas flow freely.

So whether you’re here because you share similar interests, stumbled across a post that caught your attention, or just enjoy a good read on family offices, next-gen transitions, philanthropy, social impact, art, life, feelings, or global trends, I hope you find something here that resonates with you. :-)

Welcome, and let’s keep the conversation going!

Thank you!
